develop applications to these interfaces, release them, and have confidence that
they will run on all minor releases of the product (after the one in which the
interface was introduced, and within the same major release). Even at a major
release, incompatible changes are expected to be rare, and to have strong
justifications.

<dd class="glossdef"><p>Unstable interfaces are experimental or transitional. They are typically used to
give outside developers early access to new or rapidly changing technology, or
to provide an interim solution to a problem where a more general solution is
anticipated. No claims are made about either source or binary compatibility from
one minor release to the next.

The Unstable interface level is a warning that these interfaces are  subject to
change without warning and should not be used in unbundled products.

Given such caveats, customer impact need not be a factor when considering
incompatible changes to an Unstable interface in a major or minor release.
Nonetheless, when such changes are introduced, the changes should still be
mentioned in the release notes for the affected release.
